Lords division · 26 Apr 2004 · No. 1

Planning and Compulsory Purchase Bill

It was moved by the Baroness Hamwee, as an amendment to the motion that this House do not insist on amendment 1 to which the Commons have disagreed, to leave out “not”; which being objected to, the question was put thereupon, and the House divided:

The Contents have it

Majority 9

Contents: 125 Not Contents: 116

At a glance The Contents won by a margin of 9 votes. The Government's position was Not Content, and it lost.

The party breakdowns are our own analysis of the official voting records (recorded votes only; they do not describe the formal whip). How we work this out.

Peers attend divisions ad hoc, so there is no did-not-vote list. Tellers are counted in the Content and Not Content totals, unlike in the Commons.

Tellers: Baroness Harris of Richmond (Content), Lord Roper (Content), Lord Davies of Oldham (Not Content), Lord Grocott (Not Content).
